$900.00 

Well...almost nude! Wearing coiled headband, ear decorations and a neck collar, the impressive, 11” tall young female (RFM36) wears nothing else but a pout. The solid, hand modeled ceramic image is attributed to the Colima horizon of West Mexico dating c.300-100BC and comes from the collection of one of the founders of the Rocky Mountain Institute of Pre-Columbian Studies. In overall good condition, and an eye-catching display piece, the figure has lost its left ear ornament, has lost a bit of i ...click for details

$7500.00 

This impressive 19 ½” tall, hollow bichrome figurine (LLL727) depicts a shaman-like male holding a large paddle or club. From the estate of the late Lynn Langdon, the figure was acquired in Mexico in the mid-20th century and is attributed to the Colima horizon, c.300BC-300AD. Thermoluminescence (TL) sampling by Bob Dodge of Artemis Gallery, and subsequent TL testing by the Kotalla lab in Germany, confirmed the piece as being of the period noted. X-ray examination indicates minor restoration with ...click for details

Aside for the overall quality and frequent uniqueness of the artifacts and relics from the Dr. Allen Heflin collection, it’s difficult not to to rank its next most important feature as the extreme care practiced by Heflin in documenting the provenance of almost every one of his approximately 10,000 treasured items. Not all of them were large, or impressive, or complete, or of museum quality, and many were simply the fragments and parts from ritually broken offerings to ancient gods, or pieces re ...click for details

The twelve individually illustrated and priced relics in this group of twelve (AXH Nos. 183R2N13, 224.50, 2360, 2430, 2647J and 2647AH) were all found at Aztec sites in the Valley of Mexico in the mid-20th century by the late Dr. Allen Heflin. An amazing facet of Heflin’s work was the consistent manner in which he documented the location and date of find for virtually every one of the approximately 10,000 items in his extraordinary collection. After purchasing the collection in 1997, we mounted ...click for details

With this fine bi-chrome Colima dog jar (PES33), we are pleased to introduce the first of some 75 consigned items from the estate of Brian Safe, a professional engineer and graduate of the Colorado School of Mines whose diverse interests resulted in his acquiring a collection that should appeal to all levels. Measuring 11 7/8” in length, the intact, highly burnished, somewhat typically corpulent pup was purchased at an FDIC auction in Houston in 1990 during a bank liquidation sale.

$900.00 

This fine zoomorphic bichrome censer with puppy handle (LLL642) measures 6 ¼” in length and, except for a 1 ½” long stress crack on its rump, is in excellent, unrestored condition. Found by the late Lynn Langdon in West Mexico in the mid-20th century, he attributed it to the Colima culture, although it may be more properly assigned to one of the other Shaft Tomb horizons. Whichever one is correct, it most certainly dates into the period c.300BC-600AD, is a very nice example of the style, and has ...click for details

$11,000.00 

The scene of a woman sitting is a breezeway between two ‘cabins’ (RFM42) surrounded by her three pets doesn’t differ significantly from what one might experience in some remote area of Mexico today. Attributed to the Nayarit of West Mexico, this Ixtlan del Rio styled Protoclassic model dates c.100BC-250AD. In overall very good condition, the 6 ½” long plaza is raised on four tapered feet and still retains traces of red and white paint. The largest of the three pups is missing its tail, and there ...click for details

This impressive polychrome figure (RFM43) is of the West Mexican Nayarit San Sebastian style dating 100BC-250AD. Representing a seated warrior holding a club in both hands, head turned to the right, wearing a bell-shaped and crested hat, a multi-stranded necklace, and what is probably meant to represent a protective vest, the 9 ¼” tall hollow figure is in overall very good condition without any noted repair or restoration, but has suffered moderate pigment loss.
